If you're putting single use plastic in a non-recycling bin in the developed world its pretty much guaranteed to go to landfill, not the sea. More so than putting it in a recycling bin where they might transport it on a ship to China.
- Reason077 4y agoIn many (most?) European cities the non-recycling bin will go to an incinerator, not landfill. China banned the import of waste in 2018. But other countries do still import it.
- DocTomoe 4y agoWelcome to the developed world (in my case: Germany), where recycling is enforced by ordinances and/or contracts with your waste removal organisation, which will check if you did so properly, and refuse to take your refuse away if they think you have not recycled properly enough.
